Journal ArticleDOI
Phospholipase A2 in the central nervous system: implications for neurodegenerative diseases.
TL;DR: Because many neurodegenerative diseases are associated with increased oxidative and inflammatory responses, an attempt was made to include studies on PLA2 in cerebral ischemia, Alzheimer's disease, and neuronal injury due to excitotoxic agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuroprotective mechanisms of curcumin against cerebral ischemia‐induced neuronal apoptosis and behavioral deficits
Qun Wang,Albert Y. Sun,Agnes Simonyi,Michael D. Jensen,Phullara B. Shelat,George E. Rottinghaus,Ruth S. MacDonald,Dennis K. Miller,Dennis E. Lubahn,Gary A. Weisman,Grace Y. Sun +10 more
TL;DR: The neuroprotective effect of curcumin is attributed against I/R‐induced neuronal damage to its antioxidant capacity in reducing oxidative stress and the signaling cascade leading to apoptotic cell death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phospholipases A2 and Inflammatory Responses in the Central Nervous System
TL;DR: The goal for this review is to better understand the structure and function of these PLA2s and to highlight specific types of PLA2S and their cross-talk mechanisms in these inflammatory responses under physiological and pathological conditions in the CNS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secretory PLA2-IIA: a new inflammatory factor for Alzheimer's disease
Guna S D Moses,Michael D. Jensen,Lih-Fen Lue,Douglas G. Walker,Albert Y. Sun,Agnes Simonyi,Grace Y. Sun +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that sPLA2-IIA mRNA is up-regulated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains as compared to non-demented elderly brains (ND), and a higher percentage of sPLA 2-I IA-immunoreactive astrocytes present in AD hippocampus and inferior temporal gyrus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phospholipase A2 in astrocytes: responses to oxidative stress, inflammation, and G protein-coupled receptor agonists.
Grace Y. Sun,Jianfeng Xu,Michael D. Jensen,Sue Yu,W. Gibson Wood,Fernando A. González,Agnes Simonyi,Albert Y. Sun,Gary A. Weisman +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of oxidative stress, inflammation, and activation of G protein-coupled receptors on PLA2 activation, arachidonic acid (AA) release, and production of prostanoids in astrocytes are discussed.
